Withhold highway funding from AZ. If that doesn't force change then withhold ALL
FEDERAL FUNDS to the state of Arizona.

I certainly don't want my tax dollars going to Arizona law enforcement agencies that may use said fed funds to enforce this new FASCIST anti-immigrant law.

This certainly wouldn't the first time the federal govt has used the threat of withholding highway funding to urge a state to change a bad policy or to comply with a federal law or policy.

Sometimes, it takes tough measures to bring change.

1. I'm sure Congress will get right on that.
I didn't agree with Reagan and the MADD moms holding states hostage, but this doesn't even have anything to do with highway funding, and isn't a very realistic proposal
